Hit the ground running

Raring2go! will reinvest over £10,000 into your business in its first year of trading

Raring2go! is a magazine and website franchise known as the ‘Go To Guide for You and Your Child’. Its audience is families with primary school age children. The company’s franchisees produce a colourful and vibrant quarterly A5 glossy magazine with content split between paid for advertising and highly relevant local editorial.

Revenue is generated by selling advertising in each edition to local businesses that want to position themselves in front of the family audience.

Advertising content is merged with local editorial (what’s on listings, events, days out), so the magazines are much more than just an advertising directory. They have coffee table resilience and are known, loved and trusted by parents.

Raring2go! franchisees also manage their own local website, which offers additional revenue streams from advertising banners, MPUs, feature pages and enewsletters.

Return on investment

A Raring2go! franchise costs £15,995 (plus VAT) and comes with an all inclusive start-up package, so there are no hidden costs. The franchisor has over 11 years’ experience operating Raring2go! successfully in the UK, so knows how tough starting out in business is and how stressful the first year of operation can be.

That’s why Raring2go! is putting its money where its mouth is and committing to reinvesting over £10,000 back into new franchisee’s businesses.

The company is doing this by waiving all licence fees for the first 12 months and covering the print costs of the first four editions of a new franchisee’s magazine.

This means that for the first 12 months of trading, new franchisees can focus 100 per cent on building their business, raising awareness locally, developing relationships with new accounts and making money - without the burden or direction of invoices from head office.

Who is raring2go! Looking for?

Ideally, people with some form of sales background, though that’s not essential, as Raring2go! provides a rock solid sales training programme as part of your start-up package.

What the company does need though are people who are confident and comfortable in building relationships with local businesses and selling advertising.

The franchisor is aiming to make the first 12 months of your Raring2go! journey as easy as it can. Raring2go! wants you to hit the ground running and enjoy all the benefits of selfemployment that an established franchise can deliver.

There are no guarantees in life. But with Raring2go!’s start-up package and unrivalled commitment to reinvest over £10,000 of the £16,000 purchase price during your first year of trading, this is as close as it gets.

Raring2go! has a limited number of territories available across the UK.
